Repeated Educational Intervention for the Prevention of Diabetic Foot Ulcers in High-risk Patients
Not Applicable
Terminated
- Conditions
- Diabetic Foot
- Registration Number
- NCT03555656
- Lead Sponsor
- Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Careggi
- Brief Summary
Following a prior observation that a brief structured group educational intervention is effective for the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers in high-risk patients, but that the efficacy decreases over the time, this study is designed to verify the effect of a repetition of the educational intervention.
